In 1978, the County of Hawaii had obtained a license from the Richardson Trust, the owners of the property at that time, for a fee of $500/year or 10% of their property taxes to create a temporary ponding site (across the Hilo Police Station) for runoff generated by the State Mohouli Housing Project. The Department of Public Works intended to divert these flows to Alenaio Stream via a new underground drainage system as part of the Kukuau Street improvement project. However, this project was abandoned during the mid-80s. The current property owners have not been able to utilize their property due to the pond created by the County/State of Hawaii and would like to be properly compensated for their loss. An economic analysis indicates that it would be more cost effective to properly acquire the properties to maintain the ponding area rather than to install a new drainage system. Additional funds are needed to acquire the properties as requested by the land owners. If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to call the Department of Public Works.
